About me:
Catherine Dewbre lives in Vancouver, BC. I'm in my late 20s, and has found that all my hobbies (with the exception of playing with computers - in particular WoW) translate very nicely into the SCA. I've been varying degrees of active in the Society since my mid-teens (a Shire dance practice when I was 16 and I've never looked back). In addition to getting ready for <a href="http://astriddr.wikispaces.com" target=new>Golden Swan</a> this year (2008). I'm also gearing up to publish my fifth book of poetry.


Interests:

  • Knitting
  • Weaving - tablet only so far
  • Soap making
  • Drop spinning
  • Dancing - ECD is my favourite
  • Bardic, especially singing
  • Writing poetry (and reading it too!)
